THEREFORE, I RECOGNIZE AND UNDERSTAND THAT Jacob’s Chance is not responsible in any manner for any risks related to communicable diseases in connection with Participant’s participation in the activities. Specifically, I understand that COVID-19 is a highly contagious and dangerous disease and that contact with the virus that causes COVID-19 may result in loss, damage, expense or significant personal injury, sickness or death. I am fully aware that participation in the Activities carries with it certain inherent risks related to the transmission of communicable diseases that cannot be eliminated regardless of the care taken to avoid such risks, including, but not limited to: (1) the risk of coming into close contact with individuals or objects that may be carrying a communicable disease; (2) the risk of transmitting or contracting a communicable disease, directly or indirectly, to or from other individuals; and (3) injuries and complications ranging in severity from minor to catastrophic, including death, resulting directly or indirectly from communicable diseases or the treatment thereof (“Inherent Risks”). Further, I understand that all of the Inherent Risks are not fully understood and that the exact methods of spread and contraction are unknown, and there is no known treatment, cure, or vaccine. I hereby voluntarily accept and assume all risk of loss, personal injury, sickness, death, damage, and expense for myself arising from such Inherent Risks.
Furthermore, I represent and warrant that I do not knowingly carry any communicable diseases that may be transmitted during participation in the activities.
